  1. Do teams try to screw themselves when they trade with New England?

    The Pats are an interesting case. Everyone wants to be like them (for obvious reasons - Super Bowls). But their draft performance hasn't been as stellar as you might think. I read an article recently that, if I recall correctly, pointed out that Belichick and Co don't have a tremendous record...

  2. Random Commanders Thoughts

    Just watched the first episode of season 1 of Fargo last night, and :paranoid:

  3. Random Commanders Thoughts

    That may be the nicest thing you've ever posted about the Giants, Henry.

  4. Pellet Grill/smoker

    We moved in the Fall and now have a deck again. For the last five years I've had my grill in a garage and had to wheel it out to use it, so I didn't do all that too often. I've used that grill more times in the last 6 months than the last five years combined. And yes, you are 100% correct. I...

  5. Pellet Grill/smoker

    I set ours up on a back porch protected by an overhang, and then in a garage as well, right by a window for venting. Worked great. And yes, incredibly easy to refill the pellets. But you are also correct that you have to have the pellets on hand. Amazon carries the ones I referred to which...

  6. Pellet Grill/smoker

    Yep, I bought a Bradley Smoker a few years back and produced some pretty amazing meats with it (pulled pork, bacon, chicken, sausage) - all done with the wood pellets. It got damaged in our recent move, so I will be replacing it this summer sometime. Haven't decided with what, I very well may...

  7. What's for Dinner?

    Wife and I went to a local distillery Saturday and I fell in love with their Honey Whiskey (for cooking purposes, mostly). Sunday I made a Wiskey Chili EVOO marinade for a pork loin. Took about 40 minutes to grill but oh so worth it.

  8. Health & Physical Fitness/Training Thread

    Taking a Combat Training class every day at 6am - pretty intense but I'm building strength for the first time in forever, which is great. Supplementing that with half an hour of cardio most days as well. I'm down 12 lbs since Jan 5. Need to drop another 10-15 I think and then I'll be really...

  9. Random Commanders Thoughts

    If you act like the Patriots, but have neither Belichick nor Brady, things aren't going to work well for you. The Pats LUCKED into Brady. Similarly, we lucked into Cousins. I am NOT saying Cousins = Brady or anything like that, but the Pats paid Brady a lot of money and discovered that when...

  10. What's for Dinner?

    Vietnamese Whore Houses? :paranoid:

  11. TV Show Discussion Thread

    We just started the Night Manager with Tom Hiddleston and Hugh Laurie last night. All of one episode in but I'm hooked. Based on a John Le Carre novel, whose writing I love. Slow burn spy stuff, really good.

  12. Redskins fire general manager Scot McCloughan

    I suspect this reflects the truth more closely than either of the polarized positions so popular. I have no problem whatsoever believing both scenarios; to wit, if Scot was drinking heavily, I can completely imagine resentment taking hold in the FO that he was still getting credit for the...

  13. Random Commanders Thoughts

    We all know that will never happen. If it does, Kirk will have written his way out of town. You can't say THAT and expect anything other than a trade.

  14. Burner's Burning Questions: Free Agency, The Mock Drafts, 2017 (Continual Updates)

    McCoy isn't going to be a step back, it's going to be half a city block back. Dude is a nice second stringer, but it won't take long for the league to figure him out (again) and devise D's to stop him. How is that NOT burning it to the ground? There's a reason everyone says QB is the most...

  15. Burner's Burning Questions: Free Agency, The Mock Drafts, 2017 (Continual Updates)

    Henry nailed it a week ago (or whenever). We don't run the ball well. At all. Our Defense was terrible last year. We do one thing well - the passing game. So we're going to set fire to that? How the hell does that make sense? I don't think Gruden likes to run the ball, so I'm not sure...

  16. Phones, Gadgets, and Man Toys

    Really. If you have a smart phone, you can be recorded. Privacy is a thing of the past, I'm afraid.

  17. Redskins Announce Changes to Coaching Staff

    No one else? Really? https://images.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pawlingbookcove.com%2Fimages%2Fcovers%2Fthepictureofdoriangray.jpg&f=1

  18. What's for Dinner?

    I made a bolognese sauce a couple of weeks ago, made lasagna with it (bechamel and bolognese + pinot noir? Heh). Made fettuccine today by hand - 2 cups of flour, 2 eggs, 6 egg yolks, 2 TBSP evoo, then rolled out by hand super-thin. Really good lunch today. No wine because I had to teach our...

  19. What's for Dinner?

    I purchased a cookbook from a woman who spent 6 months in Italy, learning how to make Italian dumplings from village cooks. Great story, but even better recipes. Think gnocchi, but sometimes without potatoes, with ricotta instead, or with semolina flour, etc. Really light and airy and...

  20. TV Show Discussion Thread

    BB comes out on top for me, but it's close. The Wire is amazing, and challenged me regarding societal ills; BB challenged me about who I am as a person and what I would be theoretically capable of. Plus, BB had the one scene with the kid (and that's all I'm going to say about it) that...
